In this study, the influence of fullerene junction on the chemical features of 16 different drugs including Captopril, Clonidine, Methyldopa, Naphazoline, Oxymetazoline, Tetrahydrozoline, Xylometazoline, Tolazoline, Clemastine, Procyclidine, Tyramine, Nicotine, Dextroamphetamine, Fluoxetine, Metoprolol and Enalapril was investigated computationally. For this purpose, the mentioned drugs were pl...

A fullerene graph is a planar cubic graph whose all faces are pentagonal and hexagonal. The structure of cyclic edge-cuts of fullerene graphs of sizes up to 6 is known. In the paper we study cyclic 7-edge connectivity of fullerene graphs, distinguishing between degenerated and non-degenerated cyclic edge-cuts, regarding the arrangement of the 12 pentagons. We prove that if there exists a non-de...

UNLABELLED Ceramide is an important signaling molecule that is typically generated via sphingomyelinase (SMase)-mediated sphingomyelin (SM) hydrolysis. Although diverse forms of renal injury elicit ceramide accumulation, the molecular determinants of this change and its contribution to tissue damage are poorly defined. The present study uses iron (Fe/hydroxyquinoline)-mediated injury of culture...

WO3-treated fullerene/TiO2 composites (WO3-fullerene/TiO2) were prepared using a sol-gel method. The composite obtained was characterized by BET surface area measurements, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and UV-vis analysis. A methyl orange (MO) solution under visible light irradiation was used to determine the...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of fullerene on chemical properties of naphazoline drug in   water by density functional theory (dft) methods.   materials and methods: naphazoline belongs to the imidazoline class of sympathomimetics.   the present study on naphazoline drug and its fullerene connected form were carried out using   computerized calculations of gaussian program in b3lyp/6-31g leve...

In this work, a double-buffer film of TiOx coated with CsOx (TiOx/CsOx) was solution prepared to be applied in poly(3-hexylthiophene):indene-C60 bisadduct (P3HT:ICBA) and P3HT:[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) inverted polymer solar cells (PSCs). Compared with TiOx films and CsOx films, the TiOx/CsOx double-buffer film exhibited a favorable energy-level alignment among TiOx, CsO...

Twelve chiral and achiral self-assembling dendrons have been grafted onto a [60]fullerene hexa-adduct core by copper-catalyzed alkyne azide “click” cycloaddition. The structure adopted by these compounds was determined by the self-assembling peripheral dendrons. These twelve dendrons mediate the selforganisation of the dendronized [60]fullerene into a disc-shaped structure containing the [60]fu...

Metallocene-bridged [60]fullerene triads and cyclised metallocene-[60]fullerene diads are formed via [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of [60]fullerene with metallocene dialdehyde and an amino acid. In the case of cyclic diads only one regioisomer is formed, as determined by UV-vis and NMR spectroscopic studies. These compounds have both electron donor (metallocene) and acceptor ([60]fullerene) c...

Abstract Polyether ionophores, with >120 molecules belonging to this group, represent a class of naturally-occurring compounds that exhibit broad range pharmacological properties, including promising activity towards variety parasites. In context, salinomycin (SAL) seems be interesting, as ionophore has been found active against parasites are responsible for number human and animal diseases. On...
